    Want to win the all new V4L Automatic Dial-A-Volt? *COMPLETE*

    My story, will break it down into two posts since it's long =) Two months ago I weighed in at 360 pounds. I suffer from COPD and have never been athletic. I also suffer from a rare skin disease which was recently called the third most painful disease (above even arthritis and fibromyalgia) -...

    I'm not digging the throat hit, help?

    Ways to lower throat hit: Lower the nic. Don't directly inhale. Pull drawl like it were a cigar instead. Keep your throat moist while vaping (VERY important - even more important if you are a new vaper) Try lowering the PG - some people have an almost allergic reaction to PG, me being one...

    Moving past clearomizers

    A drip shield is very simple and easy to use. You basically slide it over the atty and it prevents any leaking (or, at least almost all of it). Drip wells in mods become obsolete. Here are a ton of instructional videos: how to use a drip shield - YouTube Order some dripping atomizers for...

    Moving past clearomizers

    If flavor is what you're after, I can't stress this enough: Drip. The learning curve isn't as bad as some people make it out to be (even less if you use a drip shield) and I find that no matter what carto or clearo I try the flavor is just never as good as it is off of a hh357, cisco spec 306 or...

    Vaping and morning breath

    When I first started vaping I noticed how AWFUL my breath was. I took a sip of water from a plastic cup and recoiled, saying "this water smells HORRIBLE!" and had my friend smell it and he said "Uhh.. It just smells like your breath.." and that was the day I realized I had spent the last 20...

    i06 draw

    Oh the i06 is a GREAT atty. I just wish I had a glass tip for it. I can't find one worth using. I have an i06 booted up at all times (along with an hh357 and a cisco 306) and it's easily one of my favorite atties. If you're puffing that hard, yeah, something's wrong. Honestly, that really...

    Site is very slow loading

    It's pretty slow for a forum, but has pretty much always been like this. It's not really noticeable unless you're paying attention to it. If it's REALLY bad try updating your browser.

    "Beginner" and "Advanced" Vapes?

    I absolutely endorse picking up an advanced mod and set up as your first device. I don't personally feel that there is that much of a difference in the learning curve between cartos and carts, or atties and all that between the beginner packages and advanced packages. I always encourage my real...

    New Member Requesting Help !!!

    I don't use clearos because I'm a very dedicated direct dripper only - but I wanted to stop and say welcome to ECF and glad to hear you're vaping =)

    i06 draw

    The draw on an i06 IS very tight compared to other atties, though I don't think it's quite as tight as you're explaining.

    strongest flavored juice?

    Just a warning, juices start to LOSE their flavor if you add too much flavoring. I don't know why or know the science behind it, but anything more than 1 shot of extra flavor is usually too much and is now having a negative effect. And even still, sometimes the 1 extra shot is too much.

    smoked one cig in twelve days !!!!

    Hey! Huge congratulations! Our friends and family never really understand what we go through when quitting smoking. I will say, you're not there yet and the hardest bounds are still on their way - but remember this is for you and your family. You can do it! =) As for your equipment question, I...

    100% VG vs a mix

    Some people, including myself, vape unflavored juice often to cleanse the palate of the tongue as well as on your atties. I sometimes do 100% vg when I vape unflavored because there is no flavor so seeing the plumes of vapor is sometimes nice when vaping outside and trying to get people...

    70 year old converted

    I got a 71 year old friend vaping sometime last year. It took 10 minutes of her seeing me and my wife vape and her tasting our friends "cool strawberry kiwi" juice to say "TAKE ME TO GET THIS STUFF!". We called up a local vendor at 10:30 at night and went to get her set up with a bolt, a hand...

    OK, why all the ProVari hate?

    Read the entire post, though. "It's a great mod, but for it's price tag and features it's not really worth it". I meant that line, because there are far better mods in it's own price range, let alone ones that are CHEAPER.

    Recommend a 510 or 306 atty for a newbie Reo Grand owner and cheapest place to get them?

    As an exclusive dripper who's tried just about everything: Cisco Spec atomizers are, generally speaking, the best disposable atomizers out there. Avidvaper sells them. I personally use their 3.0 ohm 510s, 2.5 ohm 306s, and their HH357 - which in my honest opinion is the best atomizer out...

    Believe it or not, 7 months after I'm still smoking

    If you want to keep smoking, keep smoking. That's something not many at ECF are going to say out loud. But, it's your life and it's your body. It's you and it's your choice. You won't ever quit because people told you to, you'll only quit if you yourself want to. Up your nicotine level if you...

    OK, why all the ProVari hate?

    My problem with the provari, like many here have said, is the fanbase. I personally own one and it's NOT the messiah of vaping. It's not even my favorite mod that I own (that title goes to the Saber Touch). It's a great mod, but for it's price tag and it's features it's not really worth it...

    Do most experienced vape'rs have more than one unit?

    Everyone needs something to fall back on to ensure you don't go back to analogs. Some choose to have a backup as expensive as their primary mod, while for others something cheap like an ego or lavatube is more than enough (or, even something cheaper!). I personally have about 15 mods between my...
